Replacing Soil Stack Collar

Hi,
Can anyone please give me an approximate cost for replacing the soil stack collar where it enters the concrete floor. I think it has developed a leak and is leaking on my kitchen floor. The pipe collar is located right in the corner of the kitchen and is located about 6" from the floor and looks to be part of the pipe which then goes down into the floor.

I think the work will entail digging out the floor, finding the next joint and then relpacing the pipe, and making good.

If there are any alternatives I would be very grateful to hear them.

Many thanks,

Graham (Southampton)

    from a plumbers point of view as long as the pipework is accesable then i would cut the exisiting collar out and replace , rather than removing to next joint which would mean extra £££ for removing the floor
